MAKING A DIFFERENCE: The Boston Police Gaelic Column of Pipes and Drums had an absolute blast spreading St. Patrick's Day cheer and sharing their music and instruments with the kids, nurses and doctors at Franciscan Hospital for Children in Brighton on Friday, March 17, 2017. Said one of the pipers, "This - hands down - is one of the most meaningful and rewarding concerts we perform all year. Every member of the band looks forward to it. Can't say enough about the bravery and courage of the kids at the Franciscan Children's Hospital, as well as, the compassion of those, especially the nurses, who care for them."
